The $4.2 billion Transbay Transit Center, which promises to be the “Grand Central Station of the West,” broke ground in downtown San Francisco on August 14. When the new Center emerges on the site of the old Transbay Termimal in August 2017, it promises to launch a new era of urban transportation. It will link eight Bay Area counties with 11 bus and rail systems — in one modern, regional hub.
